What are the chances for this Sunday the 13th? Would love to do it one more time before the season's over.

Pretty sure the warm weather plus MASSIVE snow dump means the ice isn't going to be awesome and/or safe.

If my driveway is any indication, it's near impossible to plow this stuff, especially with an ice surface underneath.
I got my plow stuck 3 times total in this storm in my own driveway. Very HEAVY wet stuff. Thursday's storm has the potential to do similar damage. They said on the news this morning that it was the 3rd biggest snowfall recorded at the Burlington airport. Given that it isn't light fluffy powder, I don't see it compressing or blowing off the bay any time soon.

As of right now the access to mallets bay hasn't been plowed. So even if we wanted to I dont think we are going to able to get access To the lake.

My opinion is it's time to start talking about making new super stud tires for NEXT YEAR. Tons of ice doesn't mean a thing if the surface conditions are no good.
Also, Bev and I did take some video last Saturday. I'll see if any of it came out decent.
What is it, six weeks to Storyland???

Storyland is no more. The parent company that bought the property has decided that they don't want autocrosses any longer. :(
We are working on a late April event.
